"In countries where there are too few health workers, deployment of midwives to rural postings is a continuing challenge. Until more midwives are attracted to work in rural, remote areas health inequities will exist and the targeted reduction for maternal mortality will remain elusive." “In the rural area there is a lack of universities that one can upgrade or continue with education. And then there is the abandonment by the government; you are left there…till you go on pension.”
